When television arrived in 1956 it caused profound social change and introduced Australians to a new world of entertainment with series imported from the USA and elsewhere.

Superman, Maverick, the Mickey Mouse Club, Bilko, Wyatt Earp, I Love Lucy and endless other series were part of a rich black-and-white universe that captivated us, a world far removed from today's big-screen colour experience. We will be recalling and celebrating television of the 1950s and 1960s, and our first program will be a surprise! Stay tuned!
